Compiled by Dr Robert Hobbs, FTSE. Edited by Stefanie Pearce. Research and permissions Mark Bondin, Rachel Taylor, Stephanie Lavau. Designed by Royce Pty Ltd. Printed by Red Rover (Aust.) Pty Limited. Cover: Detail of a synchrotron-generated x-ray diffraction pattern. X-ray diffraction is the most widely used technique for ‘imaging’ molecules at atomic resolution and elucidating molecular structures ranging from several atoms to macromolecular assemblies. Particularly when illuminated by synchrotron light, x-ray diffraction is the method of choice for determining the three-dimensional crystal structure of metals and alloys, chemical compounds, minerals and complex molecules such as protein complexes, nucleic acids and viruses, essential for a wide range of applications in medical and other biological sciences.
